Abstract

Total hip arthroplasty is an effective procedure for improving mobility and quality of life, but the comparative functional outcomes of cemented and uncemented techniques remain debated. In this prospective randomised study of 50 patients divided into two equal groups, clinical and radiological assessments were performed preoperatively and at regular intervals up to 4 years. Cemented THR demonstrated superior early outcomes, with significantly better pain relief and Harris Hip Scores at 6 weeks and 3 months. By 6 months, functional outcomes between cemented and uncemented THRs converged, with both groups achieving good-to-excellent results and minimal complications. Cemented implants provide faster early recovery, while the long-term advantages of uncemented implants require further investigation to guide individualised implant selection.

Keywords
